I've been working on this thing for the past 2 days but i can't seem to find anything wrong with it. And also neither can my friend who i had look over it who's also a pretty good javascript coder. I say i'm pretty good since i can do somethings but if anyone can help me fix this so that it'd work that'd be GREATLY appreciated.

Ok now i'm having a problem with getting it to have more than 1 form that's named.
what i did was i went back in there and made it so that it read the index value(seems that was what i was missing all along). Then i tried to make it read the index value from 2 seperate drop down menus in the same form. That didn't work. I tried 2 seperate forms. That too didn't work. I get "not defined" when i set it to alert each step now. When i'm trying to read from the second one. The first reads just fine.

I've taken the syntax errors out but without knowing what its supposed to do who knows if you can believe the alert on the click, cause nothing sensible happens? You need to describe the desired effect and whats not happening.

I've already said that the desired outcome is. I'm wanting it to do the math i've set it up to do then write the outcomes to a text area also defined in the document. also i think javascript's got a set number of "if"s it can have. As EVERYTIME i try to do more than 2 ifs. My code never works. I don't get it and it's killing me.

I thought by naming all the input text boxes with names such as "vit" etc. would set the values oh well I guess that's pointless then.... I'm done with javascript then. I'll never code in this language again.
